Hmm okay that's interesting I've been a fair bit wider than that, which might explain why my left shoulder feels a bit of a dull ache. In fact I was goin to ask: even though greyskull style OHP's...

My barbell isn't Olympic. It is about 154cm long tops and the actual grippable part is 93cm long. There are no rings, the area that is rougher for presumably placing your hands is exactly 83cm from...

If I try to be as wide in grip as the bench press for my bent over row my hands inevitably start sliding closer in. Is that a grip issue or is it just an indication I am going too wide? Also it seems...

Well I have yet to buy a standard Olympic 20kg bar and am still just working off of the one I got from a friend, which is a shorter barbell that weighs about 6 kg, so I can't really attest to the...

Huh, so pretty damn wide. Ok I'll do that then, but doesn't a wider grip mostly activate the shoulders?

Just as a point of clarification- with the bent over rows what exactly should the grip be? Somewhat close to the chest or the distance you would use for the bench press which would be a very wide grip

Awesome. I'll switch the SLDL for a hack squat. As for reinforcing the elbow that seems like a good idea considering this week I felt a bit of elbow pain during the barbell curl, so I may add that as...

That sounds about right- only today I struggled to hit 12-12 for my lowbar squat at 28 so I would probably need more than another day for 30. I tried out hack squats and I can safely say that they...

Interesting. So why do starter strength and Alan thrall advise doing the low bar squat? Does it have any extra benefits squat-wise? Is the low bar squat even the recommended squat for allpro?
...

Recently I switched from zercher squats to low bar squats (or at least what I judge to be low bar squats from Alan thrall videos) and I've been able to pass each session at a new weight for the last...

Oh wow you can do greyskull with OHP? I thought that was just for the squat, bench and row- awesome I'll try that out.

Also, I had tried that wall move before but I did it the other way around (as...

Been a while since I've been on here. I've been running Allpro regulated for a while now and done my best to fix my diet, with my numbers now looking like this:
Squat: 23kg
Floor Press: 32kg
BOR:...

In lieu of a incline bench (or any sort of bench at all) could this in theory be done on a Swiss exercise ball or something of that nature?

Also I saw you mention traps above- what actually works...

Huh, I am thinking now I'll need more than the myfitnesspal calorie counter to keep track of this. Well, I'll be on vacation anyways for about 10 days so I guess I'll sort it all out when I return.

Em, unless I've been accidentally doing the right thing I'm going to say no. All I've done is get fat from foods that are things like bananas, milk, nuts etc. What would be a better level of fat...

So I've been doing allpro auto, doing the routine with two days rest in between, cleaned up the diet and tried at least to keep it at 2000 cals, with the carbs at 200, protein at 100 and fat around...

So I've been doing autoregulated and can now very clearly appreciate just how much butchered would have kicked my ass, so this is much more optimal!

Anyways, two things have occurred of late. I...

Oh sorry I meant that I switched to OHP style as in I just used a barbell and did the OHP after I got frustrated with the Arnold Press and found the OHP worked much better. But this variation sounds...

I see! Thanks so much again for the advice and Feyman like ability to make all this stuff understandable for the layman. So then it wouldn't be a bad idea to get some sort of whey protein powder or a...

Nutrition! That makes a lot of sense- I have not paid much attention at all to nutrition/diet and I am already overweight as it is (in the "skinny fat" variety I guess- according to websites I am...
